A member asked:
Would a 3hour neck surgery doing a disectomy and a fusion on c5andc4 be ok when i have a venous angionoma in my brain with no known cause they docs ok?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably yes: A venous angioma is an abnormality of blood vessel that one is born with. They rarely bleed, so the presence of one is of no consequence when planning elective surgery. Best to discuss this with your doctor.
